A Poem for Change
LitWorld, founders of World Read Aloud Day and advocates of literacy rights worldwide, are in the process of creating their second annual Global Poem For Change - and you can contribute.
Throughout April, anyone can submit a line to the poem which starts with the lines 'Tell me what you're thinking, tell me what you miss/Tell me what you're dreaming, tell me what you wish'. The result will be a poem that represents and unites a diverse global literary community, speaking for children across the world who want to belong to the world of words and reading.
To add a line to the poem, visit the LitWorld website - and go here to read the poem so far.
